This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled Staging: android: binder: Allow using highmem for binder to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.yuz extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.yuz tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 15bcb3f411544dfc25fb4c0e71a7decc7247b45e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Arve=20Hj=C3=B8nnev=C3=A5g?= <arve@android.com> Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 15:29:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Staging: android: binder: Allow using highmem for binder buffers MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit commit 585650dcec88e704a19bb226a34b6a7166111623 upstream. The default kernel mapping for the pages allocated for the binder buffers is never used. Set the __GFP_HIGHMEM flag when allocating these pages so we don't needlessly use low memory pages that may be required elsewhere.
